VET in schools helps students in their transition from school to work and provides many students with added skills and abilities which helps them gain employment upon leaving school. Most Queensland secondary schools offer VET certificates within the Australian Qualifications Framework, Australia's system of nationally accredited vocational education and training.

All Year 10 students complete a week of work experience in Term 4. Work experience can be a life changing experience allowing students an opportunity to explore a career they may be interested in pursuing.

Congratulations to Heather Ryan, one of our Year 12 students, who has been working towards becoming a mechanic for the past three years. Recently she graduated from the Acceler8 program sponsored by the Department of Education.
